MEMORANDUM OPINION 1
----------
Appellant Christina Renea Farris a/k/a Christina Renea Escareno attempts
to appeal a May 10, 2013 judgment adjudicating her guilt for arson. Her notice of
appeal was due in June 2013, but was not filed until October; therefore, it is
untimely. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a), 26.3.

See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4.
If a notice of appeal is not timely filed, the court of appeals has no option
but to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Castillo v. State, 369 S.W.3d
196, 198 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of
jurisdiction. 2 See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
